  • Details:
    Bounce play/Intraday flag break, 500 shares. This trade was a mistake. I was watching the 1 min timeframe as well as the 50 day moving average on the daily. I was hoping to catch a bounce off the 50dma but the setup just wasn't there. Looking at it in retrospect this was clearly a bear flag on the 1 min timeframe as well as the 5 min timeframe and should have been played as such, as a short. Lesson learned (again): don't fight the tape! See additional charts:
